Winterval is a delightful Christmas festival for the young and young at heart and is packed with seasonal events and activities set in unique heritage sites around Waterford City. Winterval takes its inspiration from the enchanting Christmas markets throughout Europe, bringing the collective sights, sounds and festive charms to Ireland’s oldest city.

From Santa’s Grotto in the Medieval Museum to a Georgian Christmas in the Bishop’s Palace, a toy museum, our Express Santa Train, ice-rink and an animal farm complete with reindeer, Winterval is set to be a highlight in the Christmas calendar that every family will want to experience. Look forward to craft making for children, an artisan food fair, a Viking Yuletide village, storytelling in Reginald’s Tower, a Polish Christmas, and a spectacular 3D sound and light show and Christmas Market in Cathedral Square.
